1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to play important roles in male reproduction. In our previous research, we studied the expression profile of lncRNAs in mouse male germ cells including spermatogonial stem cell, type A spermatogonia, pachytene spermatocyte, and round spermatid by microarray method, which showed that testis-enriched lncRNA AK015322 is highly expressed in spermatogonial stem cell. In this study, we found that AK015322 promotes proliferation of mouse spermatogonial stem cell line C18-4 in vitro. Furthermore, bioinformatic analysis, real-time PCR, and luciferase assay validated that AK015322 serves as a decoy of microRNA-19b-3p (miR-19b-3p), antagonizes its function, and attenuates the repression of its endogenous target transcriptional factor Ets-variant 5 (ETV5) which was a pivotal gene for spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal. Taken together, our results suggest that a variety of lncRNAs may regulate male reproduction through serving as competing-endogenous RNAs to modulate the function of germ cells.
